The number of marginal living kidney donors has increased. Medically complex donors who have hypertension, older age, or low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) have been more likely to be used.
Methods
We conducted a retrospective cohort study of living kidney donors at a single center. We analyzed 309 living donors and divided them into three groups: group with older donors (aged ≥70 years) (
